Garden of the Gods: Emily & Jake

I have the coolest brides and grooms.  Have you ever just CLICKED with someone?  I’m talkin’ about first interaction clickage. That was Emily and I.  Jesie always tells me I have the best gut reactions and that they’ve never led us astray; I’m happy to say Emily and Jake are another win for my gut! ;-)

Emily and Jake came down to Colorado Springs from northern Denver to do their engagement shoot and get this: Emily had NEVER been to C. Springs!!  I know, right?!  So, of course, I had to show off some of Colorado Springs’ finest scenery: Garden of the Gods.  (Duh.)  Of course, we had a fantastic time, and ended the night with some Colorado Springs-brewed beer and tasty bison at Phantom Canyon Brewery.

On their eight year anniversary, Jake and Emily will become one.  Their chemistry is so obvious in these images.  You just can’t force this kind of goodness.

Love you E&J!

FAV. OR. ITE.

Love this one!  So carefree…

Love love love those tree frames!

Emily, you are a knock out!! I can’t wait to photograph you on your wedding day!
